My froat hurts. I hope I'm not coming down with Ted's cold. I have this sort of half-formed idea that if I drink enough orange juice, the owie of drinking the orange juice will strip away the owie of the sore throat and I'll miraculously be better. We do not, however, have that much orange juice.

The last day and a half I haven't wanted to do any work. Don't want to edit, don't want to respond to Chance emails, don't want to write, just don' wanna. This is probably mostly don't-want-to-edit based, and I've been editing even if I don't want to, because hey, that's my job.

Big goal today: finish the edits, at least on paper. Tonight, respond to Chance emails. In between, maybe go to the farmers' market...

The OJ Vs. Sore Throat is one of the various primitive hind-brain beliefs I like to carry around which has no actual basis in reality (except that vitamin c is good for you). I'm apparently one of those people who'd have thought trepanning made sense, and I maintain a conviction that if only someone would give me a large needle when I have a gassy tummy, I could syringe all the owie pain out. We have no need for your puny logic here!
